This is an absolutely fantastic cruiser and its power and luxury would make it a suitable daily driver even compared to todays standards.

Suicide rear doors would go on to compliment this and make it so the passengers could easily get in and out of the back seats.

The seller has already been through the motor, with a full rebuild being completed only a few months ago.For anyone who wants a conversation piece at shows, I’m actually surprised this car still has its 429, many of these were stripped of their big blocks for use in Mustangs and Cougars. With well over 350 horsepower this car is no slouch, well at least until you decide you need to turn it or slow down. Moving around all this personal luxury takes a lot of power, so thankfully Ford decided to endow this T-Bird with a big 429 V8. As you can see this one is very nice on the inside and has minimal wear. If luxury was really a concern, the T-Bird offered as much comfort as anything from Lincoln or Cadillac, but with a little extra speed. While these cars were more luxurious than a Mustang or just about any other American two door, it was hard for buyers to justify buying a T-Bird when they could get a Pony car for considerably less money and with more thrills. They called this market the “Personal Luxury Car Segment” and while it sounded like a good idea, it was never a major success. Find the listing and the rest of their pictures here on eBay in Anaheim, California.īy the time this T-Bird was built, the model had been moved up market significantly in an attempt to carve out a market that was as far away from the Mustang as possible, but without adding any additional doors. They managed to capture the scene just perfectly, making this one of the most picturesque T-Bird listings I have ever seen.

I also noticed the less than stellar condition of these cars, plus a very out of place rooster! It would seem the seller of this 1969 Ford Thunderbird just happens to have a yard full of classic cars and a few chickens. For one, Ford would have never photographed their Thunderbird with a Chrysler or a BMW in the background (at least not without commenting on it). At first glance, I thought the photo above was an old Ford ad, but then I realized that a few things just weren’t right for a vintage ad.
